Justwondering,
Sorry it took a while to get back to you. Three things stick out in my memory. First, they want to switch meetings from the afternoon to evening. They talked about how difficult it was for people to attend the meetings and voice their opinion. Secondly they talked about working with the Township to get Park Place opened on Sundays. Finally, they want a bigger financial commitment from the Park District for youth sports. Currently the Park District provides a small stipend to the various youth leagues and then steps away. They also talked about youth leagues generally getting the inferior fields.
